With a raft of legislation governing fire safety and emergency lighting, contractors must ensure they are able to specify the correct fire alarm system in every application. When it comes to fire equipment, safety simply cannot be compromised.
Following recent changes to Documents B and J of the Building Regulations, which introduced more stringent guidelines, it is now more important than ever for contractors to take a considered approach when choosing fire alarms and emergency lighting. As a result, leading electrical wholesaler Newey & Eyre is working alongside Cooper Lighting and Safety to stock an extensive range of emergency lighting and fire detection solutions. Classified as life safety systems, the solutions meet the stringent legislation without compromise. Lauren Bourne, product manager for Newey & Eyre, comments: “Both Newey & Eyre and Cooper Lighting fully understand the necessity for product compliance and recognise the impact it can have if not taken seriously. “We know that for many of our customers, price is key and life safety systems are often perceived as ‘non-value add’ products, which means that cheaper, inferior products are often installed. “However, both companies believe that you can’t put a price on safety, which has led to a mutual partnership that promotes quality and value products which are available across Newey & Eyre’s UK branch network.” For further information on Newey & Eyre call 0800 783 6909 or call into any local branch. Alternatively, Newey & Eyre offers the additional facility to order online via Neweys Online.
